La Fontaine is an apartment, penthouse and townhouse project developed by ARCO Developments in the heart of the Fifth Settlement of New Cairo in the Golden Square area, within East Greater Cairo's most active zones.
The project spans 34 feddan (143,000 square metres) and houses 45 residential buildings totalling 565 units, dedicating 82% of the area to facilities and services with only 18% for residential units, in a distinctive French-Arab style.
La Fontaine resale prices in 2026 start from 6,500,000 Egyptian pounds for the smallest 145 m² apartments, reaching roughly 15,000,000 Egyptian pounds for the largest 320 m² 4-bedroom townhouses in resale.
La Fontaine has been fully sold out by ARCO Developments, and the project is delivered and inhabited since Q3 2023 within a 2 billion EGP total investment, per Property Finder Egypt (May 2026).
The only available buying channel today in 2026 inside La Fontaine is the active resale market, with units visible on Property Finder, Nawy, Bayut, Aqarmap and realestate.eg.
Finishing is Semi-Finished across all units, with units already delivered since Q3 2023 and inhabited, within an upscale project in the prime Golden Square location in the heart of the Fifth Settlement.
This guide covers the location, design, units, 2026 prices, payment plans, services, pros and cons, and the developer's track record for anyone considering buying inside the project.
La Fontaine New Cairo sits in the heart of the Fifth Settlement in the Golden Square area, the most upscale part of the Fifth Settlement in New Cairo, surrounded by major upscale compounds and well-known schools and universities in East Cairo.
The location provides fast access to the American University AUC, Cairo Festival City Mall, the Ring Road and 90th Street, plus proximity to major shopping centres and hospitals in the Fifth Settlement.
Compound La Fontaine New Cairo benefits from neighbouring inhabited upscale compounds in Golden Square, within a mature urban fabric containing the largest cluster of international schools, hospitals and services in East Cairo.
The geographic coordinates of La Fontaine place it in Golden Square in the Fifth Settlement of New Cairo — the exact pin can be viewed on the interactive map at the top of the project page.
La Fontaine ARCO features a refined architectural design combining modern European style with Arab oriental touches, within a planning concept blending elegance and comfort in every one of the 565 units.
The design dedicates 82% of the total area (34 feddan) to gardens, green spaces, swimming pools and walking trails, with only 18% for residential buildings, ensuring low building density and high privacy.
Architectural facades adopt a classical French style with oriental touches, with large windows and verandas overlooking green spaces, plus 45 buildings spaced widely to ensure resident privacy.
La Fontaine New Cairo houses 565 residential units distributed across 3 main categories in 45 buildings, all delivered Semi-Finished, with focus on comfortable medium and large sizes.
Apartments for sale in La Fontaine at 120-200 m² with 3 bedrooms target medium-size families, the lowest entry point at prices from 4,000,000 Egyptian pounds in resale.
Penthouses for sale in La Fontaine at 180-250 m² with 4 bedrooms and panoramic views are a distinctive category in the project, with large verandas in upper floors providing open views.
Townhouses for sale in La Fontaine at 230-320 m² with 4 bedrooms are the largest category, targeting large families seeking a "house with a garden" in the prime Golden Square location.
La Fontaine prices in 2026 start from 6,500,000 Egyptian pounds for a 145 m² apartment in resale, per Property Finder Egypt and Aqarmap listings in May 2026.
The average price per square meter inside La Fontaine ARCO ranges between 21,000 and 29,000 Egyptian pounds for repeated-floor apartments, reaching 29,000 Egyptian pounds for ground-floor units with private gardens, per Aqarmap.
La Fontaine New Cairo mid-size apartment resale prices at 150-200 m² range between 7,500,000 and 9,500,000 Egyptian pounds, depending on size and unit position inside the project clusters.
Penthouses at 180-250 m² in Compound La Fontaine New Cairo range between 9,000,000 and 12,000,000 Egyptian pounds depending on location and views over green spaces.

La Fontaine offers a flexible payment plan: 10% down with 8-year zero-interest installments for new units when available, a standard plan for Fifth Settlement projects in New Cairo.
The primary market is resale of units delivered since Q3 2023, where most transactions settle in cash or via bank mortgage financing of up to 80% of unit value from major Egyptian banks.
Cash discounts and partial seller-buyer payment systems are also available in direct resale cases per agreement between parties on installment terms from the current owner of the unit.
Investing in La Fontaine is a strong proposition thanks to its location in Golden Square in the heart of the Fifth Settlement, one of New Cairo's most mature and most-demanded zones, with units delivered since Q3 2023 producing rental yield from day one.
Apartment rentals in Golden Square appreciated noticeably during 2024 and 2025, with demand from corporate employees in East Cairo firms and from resident Arab and foreign expat communities in the upscale zone.
Compound ARCO Developments La Fontaine offers a distinctive product (refined French-Arab style at only 18% density), supporting an ongoing resale and rental premium over the long term in the Fifth Settlement.
Reasonable capital growth of 8% to 12% per year is achievable in Golden Square given the area's maturity, with strong cash exit flexibility thanks to the active resale market for already-delivered units since 2023.
La Fontaine Compound New Cairo offers an integrated services system that makes it an attractive residential project for families seeking high quality of life in Golden Square in the heart of the Fifth Settlement.
The very prime location of La Fontaine in Golden Square in the heart of the Fifth Settlement places families in the heart of East Cairo's most upscale zones, with fast access to the Ring Road, 90th Street and all services.
The distinctive French-Arab architectural style makes Compound La Fontaine New Cairo visually unique, standing out from the prevailing residential building style in the Fifth Settlement, creating a distinctive visual identity for the project.
Very low building density (only 18%, with 82% green spaces and facilities) is among the lowest ratios across Fifth Settlement apartment projects, providing a sense of space hard to find in crowded projects.
Actual delivery of part of the units since 2023 eliminates delay risk for those units and lets buyers inspect units on the ground before signing, with full assurance about construction and exterior finishing quality.
The ARCO Developments record developing varied projects (Lagoon North Coast, City Stars Al Sahel, Le Reve in New Cairo) reinforces buyer confidence in delivery deadlines and construction quality overall.
The most notable drawback is the Semi-Finished delivery, requiring buyers to complete interior finishing after handover, adding cost and time before actual move-in or rental of the new unit.
Mitigation: engage specialised interior finishing firms for measured quotes, or buy an RTM unit from the resale market that has already been finished by the previous owner and is ready for immediate move-in.
A second drawback is the limited product (apartments + penthouses + townhouses only — no standalone villas), making the project unsuitable for large families seeking a complete standalone villa with a large garden in Golden Square.
Mitigation: turn to other Fifth Settlement projects like Mountain View ICity, Layan, or HAPTown for buyers needing a standalone villa with a complete private garden instead of a townhouse.
La Fontaine is developed by ARCO Developments, an Egyptian real-estate firm specialised in developing medium and large projects with distinctive architectural style in New Cairo and the North Coast.
The company is known for other projects in New Cairo (Le Reve, Compound La Fontaine), and the North Coast (Lagoon North Coast, City Stars Al Sahel), with focus on quality and distinctive architectural style.
The ARCO record of meeting handover deadlines is an important advantage in a market plagued by frequent delays, particularly with part of La Fontaine's units delivered since Q3 2023 and the 2 billion EGP total investment in the project.
Choosing a unit in ARCO Developments La Fontaine means joining an upscale project with a distinctive French-Arab style at a prime Golden Square location, with a stable resident community since 2023 and complete services.
